VIBXPERT 11.2010
Technical notes
VIBXPERT is a precision instrument and should be treated as such.
Storage
Use the VIBXPERT carrying pouch (VIB 5.354) for transporting
VIBXPERT and for making on-site measurements. If VIBXPERT is not
used for lengthy periods, stow the measurement instrument in the
pouch* and connect it regularly to the mains to avoid the battery
from completely discharging.
Make sure that
-
the storage location is dry
-
the measurement device is not stored near electronic equipment
which can generate strong electromagnetic fields.
-
the measurement instrument is not exposed to temperatures
above 70°C / 156°F or under -20°C /-4°F.
-
the humidity is not more than 90%.
Cleaning
If lightly soiled, the carrying case and the housing can be wiped with
a damp cloth. In cases of more stubborn soiling, use a household
cleaner.
The display is protected against damage by a scratch-free transparent
film. Use a soft dry cloth to clean the film. If necessary, the protective
film can be ordered from your PRÜFTECHNIK representative.
Never use solvents or other strong cleaning agents
Maintenance & Calibration
Various factors such as aging or temperature can cause an offset in
the analog electronics. This offset should be compensated every two
months. Details are given on page 2-29.
To guarantee the high measurement accuracy of the device, VIB-
XPERT requires calibration every two years. The calibration date is
indicated on the colored sticker on the rear of the measurement
instrument. A couple of months before the next calibration a warning
will appear on the display when the instrument is switched on. Send
the device to your PRÜFTECHNIK representative for calibration.
Attention!
Appendix - Technical notes
Next calibration: November 2008
* The carrying pouch is only available
for devices without explosion protec-
tion.
